Former NFL player Buck Rasmussen thought he knew adversity—until his four-year-old daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, and just six weeks later, his pregnant wife was diagnosed with cancer.
What followed was a seven-year storm of fear, sleepless nights, identity collapse, and brutal lessons in what it really means to be a man, a father, and a caregiver.
In this powerful episode of Through the Rough, Buck shares the moment he couldn’t get out of bed… and how asking for help became the bravest thing he’d ever done.
This conversation is for anyone who’s ever held it all together on the outside… while falling apart inside.
If you’ve ever waited too long to ask for help—or know someone who has—this story will hit home.
